Re: [App_rpt-users] Serial/Parrallel interface
by K&R Yoksh 06 Oct '11

Hello Carl, Yes, chan_usbradio and chan_simpleusb both support use of a parallel port. I don't believe the XIPAR project does. I have had tremendous success using the parallel port for COS,PTT and AUX/GPIO on my nodes. As you mentioned, the CM108 fobs are becoming harder to find, and some of us have great difficulty soldering to tiny SMT pins. While I have successfully modified CM108 fobs, I have destroyed two fobs in the process. The parallel port offers several advantages, including many AUX/GPIO pins, and the ability to operate several radios from a single parallel port. I have successfully tested as many as 5 radios on a single parallel port using COS and PTT, and still had at least 3 pins left for GPIO. It should also be noted that a standard IRLP board (or generic equivalent) is supported, and even a simple "Rigblaster" type interface could be made to work with an adapter. Check out my web page for some ideas: http://www.qsl.net/k0kn/plri.html Keep in mind that app_rpt does not support the hardware DTMF decoder on the IRLP board, so you can omit that section of the schematic, and build only the transistor switches. 73 for now, Kyle K0KN Allstar 2210-2215 --- Original Message --- Hi group, Carl M1ELR here, I noticed in a post a few days ago there was mention of using the Parallel port for PTT or COR, is this possible? I currently run my node using the Centos install package from the Allstar site but can change to the install version from Xipar if needed. I have without success been buying sound fobs to build a new interface and now have a drawer full of USB fobs that I can't mod, if the I/O wasn't via the USB sound fob that would make life so much easier as the CM108 seems to be getting harder to source. Thanks, Best Regards Carl M1ELR, Allstar node 27473

D201 board and pp i/o
by George Csahanin 06 Oct '11

06 Oct '11

Anybody out there using a D201GCLF board with parallel port cor? I just got hold of another D201 board and put app_rpt on it, same version that I use on the D945 boards. I have no other D201 to compare to. But if you have one...are the input pins on the Printer port (10,11,13,etc) internally pulled up? On the one I have it only works if I pull it up, which struck me as odd. works just fine when I do so, but the 945's don't need pullup. Just curious.

dumb question
by Bradley Haney 06 Oct '11

I thought i read in one of the email's that some one configured the system to use the parrellel port to tx the radio instead of hacking a usb sound card? Or was i dreaming.. Thanks Bradley

for those Limey Linux and or D525MW users who are brave enough
by Jim Duuuude 06 Oct '11

06 Oct '11

I have compiled a test version of Limey Linux version 1.1.5 that appears to properly support the new Intel D525MW Atom motherboard. This is an 'augmented' version of the i686-suported-1.1.5 release, so it *should* work on all the previously-supported i686 processors, also. There were some rather major changes (necessary to support SATA interfaces) in the hard disk driver stuff (even for those MB's that only have IDE), so it would be nice if some people could verify that this still works on non-D525MW motherboards (at least the ones that work in the normal release). I have tested this release on both a D525MW and the D945GCLF series motherboards, and it seems to work just fine. Also, if you have 5 minutes to wait for it to boot (since the SWINE boot loader does not support anything faster then USB 1.1 speed, YUCH!), you can flash the distro onto a USB pen drive (>= 128 MB), and it will work. Once the OS loads, it runs at full speed, just the initial boot load is PAINFULLY slow. If you dare, here is the URL for this version: http://stats.allstarlink.org/limeylinux/downloads/cfimg-D525MW-1.1.5.tar.gz JIM WB6NIL

Hi Mr Duuuude, Well. I am able to access the PBX via the phone that is plugged into the TDM card and jump on the meetme conference. I can also bridge in another caller into the conference and talk for about 10 seconds before Asterisk stops / falls over. The last thing in the log that Asterisk seems to try to do before it crashes is read the radio tune stuff. The two URI interfaces do flash as per normal for a while before it all crashes. If I just try rebooting the machine but not accessing Asterisk at all via phone or anything it still falls over soon after boot. Weird. Am I right in guessing that because I can access meetme conference and also the TDM card that the zaptel drivers are loaded OK? ~Ken - vk4akp~ .-.-.

Asterisk service stopping minutes after boot constantly.. Help?
by Ken Page 06 Oct '11

06 Oct '11

Hi, Last few days I have had a problem with Asterisk stopping for no reason. Asterisk service stops a couple of minutes after boot for no reason. Every time I reboot or restart Asterisk I get the same thing. Asterisk runs for a couple of minutes and then drops out. Nothing has been changed on the system in weeks. Any idea's? Tail of the log is included below. ~Ken - vk4akp~ .-.-. [Oct 7 00:29:41] NOTICE[7624] pbx_ael.c: Starting AEL load process.

TX Delay??
by K&R Yoksh 03 Oct '11

03 Oct '11

Hello Travis, I'm wondering if you are also missing the first 2 seconds of transmissions from other nodes as well? I haven't read what type of radio hardware you're using, but everything I've ever used will key plenty quick to hear the entire announcement, etc. 73. Kyle K0KN --- Original Message ---Is there a way to delay the messages the XIPAR server put over the air?? The problem I am having is for example if I send the *81 command to get the current time I will only hear the min's because it is not keyed up long enough before it starts talking. Thanks for any help W3TMB Travis

How do I view the gzip'd.text archives?
by Mike Ping 03 Oct '11

03 Oct '11

In the archives list on the right hand side you can download the months archives into a txt.gz file. How can I view these. I have tried the instructions found at http://johnpoelstra.com/tag/import/ with his example with no problems but when I apply the same instructions to the file found on this list I have no luck. Ideally I would like to import them into Thunderbird or something similar for easy searching. Mike - N3KPU
